Note: Digital signatures have reached end of life and creating new digital signatures is no longer supported. Existing digital signatures can still be viewed, validated, and deleted. For more information, see the End-of-Life Announcement for Laserfiche Digital Signatures.
How does this activity look in the Designer Pane?
To add this activity to a workflow definition
- Drag it from the Toolbox Pane and drop it in the Designer Pane.
To configure this activity
- Select the activity in the Designer Pane to configure the following property boxes in the Properties Pane.
- Activity Name
- Activity Description
- Document to Sign
- Signature
- Countersignature Options
Note: If you have more than one connection profile for your workflow definition, the Connection Profile property box lets you specify which connection profile this activity will use.
Note: If you export a workflow that includes a Sign Document activity, the signature's certificate will not be included in the export file.
The Sign Document activity produces the following token.
| Name | Description | Sample Syntax* |
|---|---|---|
| Signature Id | The signature's ID number | %(SignDocument_Signature Id) |
Note: Starting in 2026H1, the %(SignDocument_Signature Id) token always returns -1 because the Sign Document activity is deprecated.
*The "SignDocument" portion of the syntax changes to match the activity's name as specified in the Activity Name property box. Note that all non-alphanumeric characters, except underscores, are removed from the name. For example, if you rename the activity Apply "My Signature", the syntax for the Signature Id token will be %(ApplyMySignature_Signature Id).
